Saucony ProGrid Echelon

	Excellent arch wrap

	Lack of responsiveness

This new shoe is designed with runners who wear orthotics in mind and is built on a new last that's roomier in the forefoot and flat in the heel. It features the same excellent arch wrap as the Triumph, using welded foam to make the upper fit snugly over the midfoot.

Lab test results show the Echelon offers plenty of cushioning, and their comfort was widely praised by our testers, though one commented that they felt a bit 'clunky'. Our wear-testers say:

"I've done several long runs in them and I've not had any problems with my toes or blisters."
